readx; Chang Qingyun commanded back and forth, and with a thud under his feet, he touched a hard lump. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Leaned down and touched his hand, but it was a telephone, and he pulled the line of the phone, and it was still implicated and not broken. I can't help but secretly shout out in my heart, miracle, miracle! Put down the rifle in his hand, squatted on the ground, shook the electric bell a few times, took the headphones and fed them, and someone over there asked, where?

Chang Qingyun couldn't help jumping twice with joy, and when he heard the voice, it was the battalion commander who immediately told him about the situation here. Then Suozhu answered, and he said: "You have brought back Fotouling, that's good, we can contact at any time, don't break it, I will immediately transfer it to the division commander." ”

Chang Qingyun put down the phone and was about to make a more detailed observation in front of him, but the enemy's artillery position had already fired fiercely here, and in only three or four minutes, more than a dozen shells fell in front and behind this position. The whole class of brothers brought with them was in the flames of the explosion of the cannonballs.

The enemy's fierce bombardment was not accidental, he thought that our army had defeated his wave formation, and a considerable number of people must come to counterattack. Since there are quite a few people, they will also come to recapture the stronghold of Fotouling, so he concentrated the large and small cannons in the area of Limuqiao and bombarded Fotouling closely.

The only weapon to control the enemy in this group is a light machine gun, and as long as the enemy is a thousand yards away, there are few ways to deal with it, or even none. And the enemy's artillery is a few miles away, so when Chang Qingyun arrived at Fotouling, he could no longer make active movements except for lying in ambush in the skirmish trenches to avoid shells.

But he expected that after a considerable amount of artillery fire, he would stop letting the infantry come up, and at that time, he would still be victorious if he approached him with the grenade he had just approached to destroy him at close range.

Therefore, he calmly hid in the foxhole, but ignored it. About 20 minutes later, seven or eight shells had fallen in the vicinity, first the squad leader came to report that three brothers had been wounded and two brothers had been killed, and then the deputy squad leader came to report that the squad leader had also been killed by the shells.

At this time, Chang Qingyun had already spoken to Suozhu on the phone twice, and when it came to the third call, Suozhu said loudly: "Qingshuitan is also very important, you can bring the brothers back." ”

Chang Qingyun said eagerly: "I still want to wait for the enemy to rush up and hit him with a grenade one more time." ”

The lock post was non-negotiable on the other end of the phone: "Chang Qingyun, you have to understand, you don't have the strength you had when you went first, come back, you are very loyal, you have completed the task." ”

Chang Qingyun was ordered by his boss like this, and he also felt that half of the squad would never be able to hold this stronghold, so he had to agree, taking advantage of the enemy's sparse artillery fire, and quickly leaving Fotouling with the remaining soldiers. He felt that going back like this was really unconvincing, so he cut the telephone line, walked with his own phone, and couldn't help but secretly shed a few tears.

When he arrived at the battalion command post, the lock pillar greeted him and beat him: "Fight beautifully!" The hard war is still to come, and there is no need to be passive when you work hard. I answered the call from the division commander and asked me to go back to the division headquarters, so I was anxious for you to come back. You're coming, I'll leave right away. ”

Chang Qingyun's face was solemn, he stood upright, and gave him a military salute: "Battalion commander, please report to the division commander, Chang Qingyun will also pick up the available weapons to attack the enemy in one breath, and without an order, I will not retreat a single step." ”

The lock pillar praised a few times! With the orderlies, he left the battalion command post. At this time, the enemy's artillery fire was bombarded by the fortifications in the area of Qingshuitan, and he took advantage of the light of the artillery fire to walk along the road to the north gate of Wuhan. After a few shelters, the brothers rested there quietly, not panicking at all.

Under the bamboo forest, there are also people talking quietly, and when I look closely, a few firemen and miscellaneous soldiers are digging a stove on the low embankment and setting up a big pot to cook rice. Along the way, I met a few more soldiers, escorted the people, picked up bullets and went to the front line, although the fire and gunfire around the perimeter were intensifying every moment, but all the situation was very stable.

This calm-minded man looked at it and calmed down. When I got to the city, the market slept quietly in the sparse starlight, and the guns in the distance were so fierce that there was no sound around me. Only four feet stepped on the stone slabs, breaking the silence, and what was also a little strange was the high whitewashed wall on the side of the street, illuminated by the wildfire in the suburbs, and in the dark city, a bleak red light appeared.

Another miracle is that the sergeant in black uniform is silent, standing in the middle of the street, standing guard at his post. He walked past the post, and admired himself without feeling like he was talking to himself: "It's really good, not only the soldiers stand firmly, but the police are so comfortable." ”

Cui Si replied behind him: "Really, Wuhan people are really a little different from people in other places, I have passed through many cities where the war is fighting, and there is artillery fire outside the city, and the police in the city are still standing guard, I have seen it for the first time." Wuhan people are really good, if I am not from Shandong, I would like to be from Wuhan, Hunan. ”

Although Suozhu thought his words were ridiculous, he could also see how much he admired the locals, and he was deeply moved in his heart. When I arrived at the Central Bank, which was the headquarters, the division headquarters did not feel any nervousness. But when he entered the door, he saw that the staff and deputy staff and the telecommunications team were busy going back and forth without saying a word, and although it was late at night, there was no scene of late night, and he went straight to the air-raid trench behind the hall.

While he was still outside, he heard that Ma Debi talking in a Sichuan dialect and talking on the phone there. When he walked in the door, he saw the kerosene lamp on the small table, which was lit day and night, and the head of the lamp was twisted very widely.

The division commander Gao Fei sat on the small bed, took out the flat white copper box on his body, and was taking his cigarette roll. The cigarette was a semi-rigid piece of paper, rolled into a cone about two inches long, with thick tobacco inside. He smoked the cigarette with his fingers to tighten it, but looked at Ma Debi who was sitting on a square stool next to him and talked. He had a little smile on his face, and he said: "No matter what tense and difficult situation, in retrospect, it is very interesting, the battle of four days and four nights in the Battle of Xuzhou, it was the hardest work, and even the cheeks and lips were swollen afterwards, and the acquaintances who reunited after saying goodbye did not know me." It's a pity that I didn't take a single photo at that time as a souvenir, and if there is a photo, it will be interesting to look at it in hindsight. ”

When he had said this, he saw the stilt come in, and he put down his cigarette and listened to his report. The lock post reported the situation in front of him and Qingshuitan. Gao Fei nodded and said, "Brother has such a loyal and courageous performance, it is the honor of the whole teacher, I am very satisfied!" Commander Li has a telegram coming, and reinforcements will come within two or three days, and we must maintain this solid situation. You go back to your room to rest and rest so that you can pick up your spirits before taking on a new task. ”

The pillar agreed to come out and walk back to the room. Seeing that the people living with him were already lying on their bunks in their clothes, Staff Officer Li of the division headquarters lit a fish candle on the windowsill in front of the bed, sat on the bed, put the notebook on his lap, leaned over and wrote the notes with a fountain pen. He put down his pen and raised his head and smiled: "You're back, what's the situation ahead?" ”

While taking off his gray cotton coat and loosening the cloth belt, the lock post replied: "Although nervous is nervous, our troops, from top to bottom, have to win this spirit of hard work. Only the attack of the enemy's wave-like troops, in the dark of this moonlit night, was quite a process. ”

These words aroused the interest of Staff Officer Li, and he put away the fountain pen, inserted it into his pocket, closed the notebook, looked at him and replied: "This is not only yours, but everywhere!" Today I am at Yangong Temple, and I saw a wonderful performance with my own eyes. ”

Staff Officer Li put the note in his coat pocket and stood up: "Today, when the enemy attacked at dawn, the number of people had increased to four or five thousand, and according to our observation of the place where the enemy fired artillery, there were always fifteen to seventeen large and small artillery pieces of the enemy, and they were bombarding our fortifications on the long embankment of the big stone bridge of Yangong Temple. In this way, of course, there was a small river blocking the enemy's advance in the terrain we were defending, but there was also a great problem, that is, the embankment on the west bank was as high as the embankment on the east bank, and we were hiding in the fortifications, and we saw a levee across the river, not a plain where the enemy came, and although we had an observation sentry on the other side of the river, he reported the enemy's situation and we could not shoot with machine guns. But we have a definite countermeasure, and it will not be easy for the enemy to cross the river by that embankment. As soon as he reached the embankment, our rifles could hit him, and sure enough, after half an hour of shelling, the enemy used a dense line in waves to violently attack the Dumu Pass of Yangong Temple. ”

The lock pillar interjected and asked, "Dumu Pass?" ”

He didn't finish his sentence and looked at him with his eyes open. Staff Officer Li sighed and said: "This is the most frustrating thing about our battle, that regiment is drawn from friendly forces and belongs to our command, and there are other people's tactics, and he won't believe what he says." Yesterday afternoon, the regiment commander took the whole regiment of soldiers and crossed the south bank of the river. In the defense ahead, we believed in this group of people, so we did not send people to deploy it again. As soon as they left, the enemy immediately swarmed in, and we had to change to the Dumu Pass across the river. ”

Suozhu gritted his teeth: "Isn't that bastard regiment commander the one who warned him two days ago?" The troops trained by others brought it over, and it was always unhelpful. How's it going? ”

Staff Officer Li lit a cigarette: "I have to make up for some information: the third battalion has been fighting fiercely for three or four days and nights, and the seventh and ninth companies, with considerable losses, have been transferred back to the city. From Yangong Temple to Dumu Pass, it was the defensive task of the first battalion. The peak of the development of the enemy's wave attack was at the Big Stone Bridge. Nine enemy planes continued to bomb and strafe overhead, and we could not control the plain of Yangongmiao on the embankment west of the river, and we could not stop the enemy from climbing up the embankment under that embankment. After climbing up, they relied on the cover of the aircraft at low altitude, and rushed over with the small fishing boats and plank-bound rafts that remained in the river. When we saw this, the disparity between the outnumbered people was so great that we had to retreat to the established positions in the rocks. The enemy was so vicious that he thought that we had really fallen, and that the men who had crossed the river, numbering about 3,000 men, divided into several roads from north to south, swooped down on the rocks in unison. At this time, I was in the command post of the first battalion, with battalion commander Yang Weijun. Battalion Commander Yang placed two companies in a figure-of-eight position, and stretched out two pincers to the enemy who came from the guideline. We are on the one hand to deal with the defense of the northern suburbs; On the one hand, it was quite difficult to guard against the enemy rushing along the Yuan River from Dumuguan in Deshan City.

By two o'clock in the afternoon, the enemy, with four cannons, had moved to the northern head of Dumu Pass, Tanjiagang. Boom Boom Boom is right on the rock bulge bombardment. It was always a little and a half an hour, and every two or three minutes, a shell exploded in front of and behind the command post. I looked out from the command post and saw a mountain of fog piling up smoke all over the ground. Except for the firelight that opened in the fog one after another, and it was impossible to see any farther. Wuli Mountain came over, to the south of Yejiagang, where there was a row of people guarding, blocking the enemy's advance route to the rock, the enemy's aircraft group, did not live there hovering, that place was the first company commander Hu Dexiu, personally guarded there, he usually can't see what he is capable of, but when it comes to fighting, he really has a hand, Yang Battalion Commander and he are on the phone, and I am afraid that the language is a little unclear, let me take the phone, repeat the order to him, later, Yang Battalion Commander asked the deputy battalion commander to take a group of people, in the gap between the shell explosion, Rushed up. At that time, there was a cloud of smoke on the ground, and enemy planes were still buzzing in the sky."

Staff Officer Li stood in the middle of the room, his two hands instead of planes, cannons, machine guns, and rifles, and the enemy troops of our army.

His own body also represents Battalion Commander Yang, Deputy Battalion Commander, and Company Commander Hu, and has played several roles. Sometimes the body is half-squatting, sometimes it is straight, sometimes it is moving one step and a half step. Speaking of this, Suozhu smiled and said: "Storyteller, although you say that you are impressive, but it is a bit off-topic, your book seems to be about Yang Weijun taking over the defense of Goose Port, and Hu Dexiu is guarding Yejiagang." It's just a cutscene, and I don't understand the wonderful scene you are talking about. ”

Staff Officer Li said with a smile: "Isn't it a wonderful scene for a group of people to be guarded under the threat of more than a dozen cannons and nine planes?" But I haven't told you the best of the best scenes yet. Don't be busy, you wait for me to talk about this lively book slowly, and I'll drink a glass of water first. ”

As he spoke, he bent down, took out the large porcelain pot under the bed, and then on the windowsill, took a coarse porcelain bowl, poured a bowl of cold boiled water, and drank it standing. He drank the water in one gulp, put down the bowl, and still stood and said, "Listen to me again about the most wonderful part." After the deputy battalion commander had been there, the enemy's planes concentrated on bombing the rocks. Needless to say, the artillery on the road in Deshan City, as well as the artillery on the road of Dashiqiao, all bombarded the position in the area of Yanluo. The flames enveloped the front and back for thousands of yards. All I could hear was the sound of explosions. The price paid by the enemy for this stronghold can really give him four words: spare no expense! ”
